<desc language="en">This is a <i>great</i> game</desc>
<desc language="en">This is a great game</desc>
<desc language="en"><b>This</b> is a <i>great</i> game</desc>
<desc language="en"><i>This</i> is <b>great</b> game</desc>

Example 13.13 - A variety of legitimate values for the desc element. The highlighted text represents HTML formatting tags.


<xsd:complexType name="DescType" mixed="true">
  <xsd:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
    <xsd:element name="i" type="xsd:string"/>
    <xsd:element name="b" type="xsd:string"/>
  </xsd:choice>
  <xsd:attribute name="language" type="xsd:language"/>
</xsd:complexType>

Example 13.14 - A complex type with mixed content.


<xsd:complexType name="DescType" mixed="true">
  <xsd:sequence>
    <xsd:any minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"
      processContents="lax" namespace="##other"/>
    </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>

Example 13.15 - A complex type with mixed content and a wildcard. With this approach, some tools will give you an array of text and elements in the order they appear.
